Divya Maus - The Marketplace Lyrics

I don't wanna go to the docks in the marketplace
I don't wanna go, daddy, please don't make me go
I don't wanna pose on the docks for the people there
Bidding on my bones, daddy, please don't make me go

I don't wanna walk on the docks in the marketplace
Show them how I go, daddy, they don't need to know
I don't wanna smile and delight all the people there
Bidding on my bones, daddy, please let me stay home

Don't put me up for adoption in the marketplace
Can't I be my own daddy, can't I be my own?
Don't make me stand in the sand of my mother's land
Bare skin on the stone, daddy, please don't make me go

I don't wanna go to the docks in the marketplace
I don't wanna go, daddy, please don't make me go
I'm too stiff to bend for the men who defend their ends
Bearing sticks and stones, daddy, please don't make me go

I don't think I can go to the docks in the marketplace
You don't wanna know what'll happen if I go
I will disobey, I will fail to fulfill your will
I don't mean you ill, father, but it will be so

Don't put me up for adoption in the marketplace
Can't I be my own daddy, can't I be my own?
Don't make me stand in the sand of my mother's land
Bare skin on the stone, daddy, please don't make me-
Please don't make me-
Don't make me-
Make me-

( Go! Oh! Oh! Oh! ) x4

Please don't make me
Please don't make me
Please don't make me
Oh...
